Our Vision
APAC transforms aspiring artists into accomplished professionals by combining expert guidance with academic excellence and creativity. Here, students turn their dreams into reality, guided by accomplished mentors who prepare them for successful careers in performing arts.
With a legacy dating back to 1993 when it was known as the Australian Stage Combat School (ASCS), the Australian Performing Arts Conservatory (APAC) has been a cornerstone in delivering exceptional performing arts education in Brisbane.

During this time, we’ve consistently produced professional graduates who have flourished in successful careers across theatre, screen production and media.
